It's Cuba Vs. Japan in WBC Championship Game at Petco Park

Sunday March 19, 2006
It will be a face off between two international baseball powerhouses (no, not the U.S.), when Team Cuba meets Team Japan in the championship game of the inaugural World Baseball Classic Monday night at Petco Park. Cuba defeated a major league-rich Dominican lineup in the first semifinal, and Japan defeated the undefeated Korean team in the other semifinal. Former Padre Anikora Otsuka shut down the Korean team in the ninth inning to preserve the win. For more recaps on the World Baseball Classic and a preview of Monday's matchup, read about it here.
